Pulling over, Ethan surveyed his surroundings through the window.

"Need to call for backup?" Burgess was a little nervous, and rubbed his red, green, and green gloves vigorously.

This is the patrol officer's first reaction, and there is a need to call for support in advance.

"No, you don't."

Ethan observes the radar, which has only five points of light, all on the first floor.

There are six bullets in your own python, which is enough.

"Let's go!"

Ethan pushed open the door and walked through the front yard.

The other party is a police detective, and he is also the most powerful police detective in the intelligence group.

In this regard, Burgess had no say and hurriedly got out of the car to keep up with his movements.

Walk up the steps and stand in front of the door.

Ethan motioned for Burgess to stand sideways, then pressed his hand to the handle of the gun.

"Knock knock."

"Who?"

"Chicago cops, open the door."

Seeing the point of light move inside, Ethan took a step back.

Burgess shrugged, a little too cautious.

The other party didn't know that she was being tracked at all, but at this time, she did the same.

The door soon opened, and standing inside was a white lady in a brown sweater, who looked to be in her fifties or sixties.

The blonde hair was coiled back and the roots were already a little gray.

Seeing the two people standing at the door, she had a kind smile on her face:

"Hey, what's the matter?"

"Good afternoon, Chicago cop." Ethan flashed his badge: "Have you seen one?" ”

Before he could finish speaking, the boy in the knitted hat who opened the door of the room was standing in the passage of the room with a restless expression.

"Is he your grandson?"

Ethan didn't talk nonsense, and directly stretched out his finger.

"It's not dear, but I do treat him as my grandson." The white lady nervously folded her hands and hurriedly asked:

"Please, don't tell me what trouble he's getting into again?"

Seeing this, Burgess couldn't bear it.

Still, she asked very dryly, "Then do you know that he is a thief?" ”

"Even-bought karma!"

The white lady sighed and asked in disappointment, "Did he start stealing his phone again?" ”

"So you know it's going to happen." Burgess asked.

"He's had that problem before."

The white lady shook her head and said sadly, "I didn't know he would do anything like this." ”

"I don't have a problem." The kid in the knitted hat inside argued.

"So."

The white lady turned around and snapped, "We don't have two Chicago cops standing in front of our house, do we?" ”

"Now, right now."

"Whatever you stole from me, take it out for me and return it to the two officers."

Seeing the knitted hat boy disappear into the living room, the white lady sighed and said slowly:

"You don't even know what kids think these days."

"Can you believe it?"

"He stole his phone back just to get those stupid video games."

"God, I don't know how to educate."

"Ma'am."

Ethan stood sideways and asked lightly:

"I have reason to suspect that he stole his phone and sold it to the Latin Father Priests, what do you have to say about that?"

At this time, the kid just now walked out with his head down and three mobile phones.

Hearing Ethan's words, the white lady's face became surprised, she hurriedly waved her hand, and said quickly:

"Officer, he might be a troublemaker."

"But he's never going to get involved with the gang, and I've watched him grow up, and I can guarantee that."

The knitted hat boy walked to the door and reluctantly handed out the three mobile phones in his hand.

He said sullenly, "Here you go, it's all here." ”

The white lady took him into her arms, and her thin hand stroked the boy's head.

She looked at Burgess with pleading eyes, and said in a trembling voice:

"This police officer, I'm really sorry, I will definitely educate him that he can't do this kind of thing again in the future."

Burgess took the three phones and pursed his lips.

The phone with the bug on it was in it.

She sighed, patted her phone in her hand, and now she can only continue to go fishing.

"Why don't we go back?"

She shrugged at Ethan and said helplessly.

Looks like they're with the wrong person.

"If you don't mind." Ethan reacted very differently, he looked at the white lady with a smile on his face:

"No, whether you mind or not, I'm going to go in and have a look."

"Excuse me, can you satisfy my curiosity?"

The white lady was stunned for a moment, then looked at Burgess again, looking puzzled.

"Don't look at her, look at me."

Ethan tilted his head to look at the white woman, "I'm a police detective, do you agree to my request?" ”

I can't help but disagree, fishing is allowed to enforce the law here.

The people of the discipline group also have a lack of morality.

They will have the policewoman disguise herself as a street girl to trap the old man who comes out to play.

Based on the current situation, Ethan has every reason to suspect that it is a den of stolen goods, and a raid can be conducted.

Although I don't understand why Ethan still insists on going in and searching, at this time, the most stupid behavior is to doubt his partner.

Burgess also put his phone away and looked at the white lady with a serious face.

Seeing this, the latter reluctantly retreated to the house with the knitted hat boy in his arms.

The entrance is a passageway, and next to it is a staircase going up.

A few steps inside, next to the living room door, the TV was beating, and George was bouncing in the mud.

The innermost part is the kitchen and dining room, and you can see the dining table directly.

Walking into the living room, the white lady sat on the sofa with a knitted hat boy, not only them, but also three teenage children sitting on it.

The children all looked at Ethan and Burgess with horrified expressions.

"Don't be afraid." The white lady hurriedly comforted the children:

"Don't be nervous, these two officers are good people, they come in and have a look, and they will leave soon."

Seeing the sight in front of him, Burgesston's heart softened.

She carried the men on her back and gently tugged at the corners of Ethan's clothes.

"Officer Burgess."

Ethan said solemnly, "Look at them and do your job." ”

The more these people looked like this, the more he felt that something was wrong, and white people were not afraid of the police.

If there is really no problem, the first reaction of these people will only be to shout noisily to call a lawyer, instead of blindly selling pity.

This kid with a knitted hat is not very old.

Even if the charges are confirmed, they can come out quickly.

So the reaction of the white lady aroused Ethan's alarm.

"Got it."

Burgess heard Ethan's words and quickly let go of his hand.

When it's time to get down to business, his aura is still quite scary.

The small living room is very cosy and has some touch, to be exact.

The price of all kinds of furnishings is not very expensive, but it is by no means a bargain, the clothes worn by a few children and the shoes on their feet are not cheap.

An old lady and four children can live such a life.

That's the main reason Ethan was suspicious of her, to see what kind of life the Gallagher family was having.

Changing clothes is a common thing, as long as there are no holes.

"Excuse me, are you the only one with these children?"

Ethan pressed one hand on the handle of the gun and walked slowly.

"That's right."

The white granny squeezed out a smile: "My husband and I adopted them. ”

She wiped the corners of her eyes, "Ever since Johnnie left, a few of them have been the only thing left of me in this world. ”

The corners of Ethan's mouth turned up, and her words just confirmed her thoughts.

If her husband had been a man with a lot of legacy, he wouldn't have lived in this kind of community, let alone driven the Corolla outside.

It seems that life is very embarrassing, but in fact, the food and drink are not bad, so where does the money come from.

"Burgess." Ethan whispered:

"Look at the few of them, put your hand on the hilt of the damn gun, do you know what I mean?"

"Understood, sir."

Burgess nodded hurriedly, she took two steps back, and put one hand on the Glock: "Ma'am, please stay calm. ”

"We'll check it out, and if there's nothing wrong, we'll be leaving soon."

"Please don't make any misleading gestures, thank you."

Several people on the sofa looked at each other.

The white lady clasped her hands tightly.

Ethan left the men alone, leaving Burgess behind, walking back from where he remembered.

The Knitted Hat Kid walked into the living room just now, but the light moved to the kitchen.

Ethan looked back at the few people sitting on the couch and stopped in front of a row of cabinets.

Burgess keenly observed that when Ethan's footsteps stopped, the white lady was normal, but there was uncontrollable panic in the eyes of several children.

She immediately raised her vigilance, and at the same time slowly distanced herself.

The location is pretty much the same, and that's it.

Ethan grabbed the handle of the cabinet and opened the wooden cabinet.

"Squeak."

After a soft sound, the contents came into view.

A dozen or twenty boxes of breakfast cereals were placed haphazardly, blocking the cabinet tightly.

The sound of the soldiers rang out, and the cereal box was swept to the ground by him.

"Bingo~"

Ethan snapped his fingers, looked back and smiled:

"Ma'am, do you want to guess what I found in this place."

At the very back of the cabinet, there is a travel bag.

Due to the panic just now, the zipper of the bag didn't have time to close.

Densely packed mobile phones, stacked on top of each other.

Thank you Bai Fan Qunzhi for your support, thank you
